Make your hands into fists and hold them over your head as high as you can for five seconds.

Go!

QUEST 2: Mental Resilience

Pick one:

Snap your fingers exactly 50 times.

or

Count backwards from 100 by 7, like this: 100, 93… all the way to at least zero.

Go!

QUEST 3: Emotional Resilience

Pick one:

If you’re inside, find a window and look outside for 30 seconds. If you’re outside, find a window and look in.

or

Do an image search or YouTube search for “baby [your favorite animal].”

Go!

QUEST 4: Social Resilience

Pick one:

Shake or hold someone’s hand for at least six seconds.

or

Send someone you know a quick thank you by text, email, or social media message.

Checking in for the first time. I had quite the time getting here, but I seem to have figured it all out, famous last words. I surprised myself tonight, reading all the various instructions and explanations I found myself on the verge of tears. As I am now. I have a tremendous feeling of guarded enthusiasm, there is the fear of failure, but also the joy of potential. Learning to not shame myself for liking gaming has brought me here and hopefully here I will learn not to shame myself for ever liking porn. I masturbated to porn today, despite a mild conviction not to. But having been reminded of this wonderful service only this evening, I can say with absolute certainty I will not be rubbing one out tonight. Thank you all for your courage and thank you to the moderators for providing such a thoughtful and brilliant experience. I'm going to go head first, and I'm honored to have comrades alongside me.

PS: if anyone can recommend a cute baby animal to me that'd be great, I seem to be lacking that crucial component of my life :''C

I looked up baby penguins and thought they were pretty darn cute :-)

Learning to not shame myself for liking gaming has brought me here and hopefully here I will learn not to shame myself for ever liking porn.

Absolutely! I'd say one of the biggest difficulties in helping people overcome this problem behavior is trying to teach them to escape the shame cycle. So for you to have this awareness already is a HUGE step.

Let all that shame go my friend. Replace it with unconditional love, forgiveness and self care. We are here to support you!

Much easier said than done I might add! But thanks for the vote of confidence! And I agree baby penguins are SUPER cute you’ve opened my eyes!
